Off shore considerations
I'm looking to start expiring the idea of gong off shore, Hydro, Atlantis, Veech, etc.
I'm completely comfortable interpreting the weather and tides, etc to predict conditions inshore almost anywhere in our local waters. What's different about off shore besides passing storm systems?
I'm pretty safety oriented, even in local waters. I always have a gallon of water, full first aid kit and the typical inshore safety gear on board but what additional is recommended beyond EPRB and additional provisions like plenty of water and food for going 150 miles off shore?
Other than looking for a bluebird pattern, EPRB, food and water, range of fuel, what else is to consider?
